ARCHIVED - 21st to 25th February Carnival in Jumilla 2020
The main adult parade in Jumilla is on the 22nd February 2020
Jumilla holds its annual Carnival celebrations between the 2nd and 5th March 2019 with a number of events focusing on family fun.
Friday 21st February
20:30 in the Espacio Cultural Jumilla, the humorous chirigota formed by the Mujeres Rurales de la Fuente del Pino perform. Entry is free of charge.
Saturday 22nd February
17.30 The grand carnival parade takes place, the Desfile de Carnaval, with a number of local groups, dancers and peñas, departing from calle Cánovas, and heading towards calle del Calvario via Canónigo Lozano. At the end of the parade prizes will be awarded to the best dressed participants.
23:00 Fiestódromo in the parking area of the Plaza de Abastos indoor marketplace. An after-parade party featuring local DJs
Sunday 23rd February from 17:30 onwards the traditional 'Domingo del Higuico' is held, organised by the neighbour’s association of El Calvario, as well as the Asociación Amigos de Jumilla and the Asociación Cultural Hypnos
These are two traditions very much linked to the past of Jumilla, the first a game in which a person is dressed in a traditional costume and carries a sweet on the end of a stick, which the children must try and catch with their mouths, and the second is a specific song, very much akin to the chirigotas seen elsewhere in carnival.
Monday 24th February
11:30 Children's schools carnival parade via the following route: Plaza de la Glorieta, Cánovas del castillo, Avenida Asunción, Reyes Católicos and concluding in Paseo Poeta Lorenzo Guardiola
Tuesday 25th February
17:00 Children's entertainment in the marquee installed in Calle Calvario.
